Speed of Implementation is Key to Success

One thing you'll immediately notice about successful people is that they tend to take action to implement their plans and ideas at once. You'll also notice that unsuccessful people are just the opposite rarely taking action on anything. They spend huge amounts of their resources studying and analyzing things, but when it comes time to actually do something they just can't bring themselves to do it. And they don't get much help from the people around them because the people around them aren't successful either, but they have all kinds of opinions. Yet unsuccessful people continue to seek the thoughts and opinions of those around them when they should be making their own decisions.

An outsider would think that successful people follow the behavior pattern of ready, fire, aim. Because they're always ready and willing to take action. They immediately take action without appearing to take aim because they have a clear plan for what they're trying to accomplish.

When an opportunity comes up that will take you closer to success the best time to take action is always now. But you aren't able to do that because you treat information like facts. Define what you know and what you don't know. Verify that what you think you know is fact based not information based. Most people can't differentiate between information and facts and that causes them to be indecisive. Facts are based on undeniable truths and root causes.

Facts are not based on thoughts and perceptions those are pieces of information. If you aren't careful you will take those thoughts and perceptions and turn them into realities. You and you alone determine your actions and outcomes regardless of the information you have information about outside circumstances and people.

The good news is that you can change your unsuccessful behaviors and turn them into successful behaviors. Start thinking about what success means and how you would get that then identify just one thing you could do right now. No matter how big or how small that action is take that action.

Each and every day you must commit to taking at least one action that will take you closer to success. Think in terms of actions and outcomes rather than projects and challenges. Realize that you manifest what you focus on, so you want to focus on the ultimate outcome you want and the specific actions you must take to get it.
